Yes, that's our goal, also.

But different gramps volunteers do different things. I do not
have the knowledge to make a Windows AIO, whether 32- or
64-bit. The person who makes them has not had the time to
make a 32-bit one, the last I checked. I do not know what is
involved but it is evidently a laborious process.

If you want, here is a link which describes how you can run
gramps on Windows, whether 32- or 64-bit, and was written
by our Windows packager. It does not describe how to make
the package, but perhaps you get an idea of what's involved.

Ok, but if the developers doesn't have time to release windows executable, it would be helpful if the wiki would teach how to create a win32 / win64 package.

Yes. it would. Too bad the same person who (I assume)
doesn't have time to make the 32-bit AIO is also the one
who'd have to write that wiki page. And English isn't his
mother tongue. (Have you searched our wiki?)

But don't think I am not sympathetic. I am typing these
words on a 32-bit machine and in fact its o.s. is now older
than my browser will support, so it is frozen at an older
release. The last I checked there were millions of such
o.s. out there, not getting security patches from M$ and
so forth. I guess for our own reasons we want to keep them.
